Did you know that you can install the Nookbook App on a thumb drive?

I'm not allowed to install software on my PC at work and when I want to read at lunchtime or if I have to stay late waiting for a ride I want to read.

However sometimes I've already finished my paperback/hardback book, I don't have my Nook and I don't feel like reading on the tiny screen on my phone.  I have downloaded the BN Nook app on a thumb/flash drive.  I just put it into a USB slot and click on the BN application "exe" file and the Nook app opens up.  It syncs on my Nook library and I can continue a book I was reading or start a new one.

When installing it and the application asks where to install the application just click on the drive that's showing where your flash drive is located.

Thanks! My hard drive on my laptop is pretty full and I do not want to add more apps & software onto it and slow down my computer and take up what few MBs I have left.
